5 key takeaways from the Democratic debate

Thursday night’s Democratic primary debate was the first to bring all of the top contenders together on one stage. Former Vice President Joe Biden, still leading in most polling, was flanked by Sen. Bernie Sanders and Sen. Elizabeth Warren, the candidates who have established themselves as his closest competitors. The ABC and Univision moderators were happy to let the candidates spar on health care, national security and trade, although the topics of the federal judiciary and abortion didn’t come up over the course of the evening.
